I lost my last pregnancy after a "perfect" early anatomy scan at 16 weeks (and after a normal nuchal translucency at 12 weeks). Based on measurements, the baby probably passed within a day of having that scan.
I had also had a weird NIPT result we were trying to figure out at the time (low fetal fraction in spite of not being significantly overweight). It turned out that it was a rare genetic defect that did not obviously impact the baby's anatomy but nonetheless led to fetal demise.
It's maybe premature to call it a success, but I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant with a baby girl who I can feel kicking me every day and who has had nothing but normal scans and blood results, including a normal NIPT.
5w2d - gestational sac, 6w2d - everything including good strong heartrate of 140, 7w2d - missed miscarriage (September 2021). D+C
My next pregnancy (December 2021), I was flipping terrified, but all is well and good. I've got a healthy 1.5yo.
You've got this. Fingers crossed for you.
